well, I've spent whole weekend with the same problem.
I installed 10.10.2 , patched IOKIT,patched dsdt and ssdt, then used config.plist and kext from 10.10.1 version (no intel inject) - I copied whole efi folder and boot with safe mode. Then I changed to the last kext and config.plist and it seems to be ok.

Wojtoo, are you getting full QE/CI after this?

What do you mean by copying the whole EFI folder?

Found the issue.

ig-platform-id 0x0a260006 does not work for me.

I went back to 0x0a2e0008

Now it works like a charm

Seems like everything works well except my audio.

I attached the ioreg. Can you please take a look at and see what i am missing?

Edit: nevermind. Subsequent reboots have fixed it. Something must have been cached

you can copy efi or clover folder with all files inside.
yes, I have full QE/CI working

Same. 0x0a26006 does not work for me either

That framebuffer has an issue in 10.10.2, when waking up from sleep the display will remain blank.
If 0x0a2e0008 is working and 0x0a260006 is not, that means your kext patches in the plist are not correct.

To ensure all is correct I will double-check the github plist on a separate Yosemite installation.
(My live config.plist is a different file since it contains my serial number etc).

Got it, Thanks a lot for your great work. You and rehabman have made this as seamless as possible.

I was guessing the same thing with the patches. I will check them too when I get a chance.

I did notice the sleep/wake issue already. Also, plugging in an HDMI monitor causes a kernel panic too.

0x0a26006 is not valid. Correct value is 0x0a260006.

I tested the Clover provided in github directly on an empty USB stick.
After inserting my compiled DSDT/SSDT in ACPI/patched, it booted straight up into Yosemite.

So besides a potential problem with i7-4710 vs i7-4712, there do not seem to be any issues.

I'm just here to say THANKS!

m0gg89,

Thank you for your feedback. I have now updated the script to determine the processor type (i7-4710HQ vs i7-4712HQ).
Appreciate it if you can test that it works properly. The output will now indicate which processor has been found.

Code:
[DSDT]: Compiling ssdtPRgen to ./DSDT/compiled
[DSDT]: Intel i7-4712HQ processor found
